Thanks for the video! I still have a Mohawk Brown Nylon 66 that I found new in the box in a store in Juneau Alaska in 1992! I knew it had been out of production for several years by that time, so I was surprised to see a new one in the rack in a retail store! (It was a drug store that also sold guns.) At that time I also had an old Mohawk Brown Nylon 66 I had bought used when I lived in Idaho for $25.00. It had light rust on all the metal parts I could see, but when I removed the action cover and took the barrel out of the stock I discovered the rest of the metal parts and the underside of the action cover were rust free. I dumped a full 1/4 cup of powder residue and small shavings of bullet lube out of the stock, cleaned up what I could (the inside of the barrel was perfect) took the rust off the action cover and the end of the barrel that stuck out of the stock using coarse bronze wool and oil, reassembled the rifle, and shot it for several years until I bought the new one in Alaska. It worked perfectly and was surprisingly accurate using the iron sights. After I purchased the new Nylon 66 I gave the used Nylon 66 and two 500 round cartons of .22 lr ammunition to the winter caretaker of a Forest Service field camp in Alaska so he could entertain himself over the winter. It worked fine for him for awhile. He kept it outside of his cabin in a place where it couldn't be rained or snowed upon so the rifle wouldn't "sweat" when he took it from the cold outside to the warm inside of the cabin. It suffered a catastrophic death during a below zero cold snap when he slipped on some ice while carrying the rifle. He had only one arm, so he had the rifle in his hand. When he slipped he put his hand down to catch himself with the rifle still in it. The rifle hit something hard and the entire so-called nylon of the rifle exploded into a thousand pieces! He landed so hard on the rifle that the barrel too was bent! The rifle, except for the barrel, was swept up and thrown away. The bent barrel was used for a year or two to whack halibut in the head, until it was accidentally lost overboard in about 20 fathoms of water. So goes the life of two Nylon 66 rifles!

I bought an Apache Black model 66, it was chrome plated and I wish I had not traded it now for something else. The design was far ahead of its time. The directions I believe said it needed no lubrication to operate. The testing done by an exhibition shooter claimed the record for shooting 4-inch wood blocks tossed into the air. I believe the number of wood blocks was 25,000 over a short period. The Remington catalog pictured the shooter sitting on a large pile of wood blocks.🤔👍

Good video Andrew, you need better overhead lighting I really couldn’t see much inside the receiver but you did a great job explaining it 😊

I didn't catch the part where you typically give ballpark values? The nylons have gone up significantly from back when I was a kid. You couldn't give one away.
